Summary
“What are you not doing?” Whitby asked, as Lowry palmed him clumsily through his cotton boxer-briefs. He was soft, of course, and the friction from the fabric wasn’t helping to change that, but he let Lowry do it once, twice more before he caught Lowry’s wrist in his hand and held it at his hip.
“I’m not fucking blowing you,” Lowry said, his hand flexing so he could slide his fingers under the hem of Whitby’s shirt. The tendons in his wrist strained under Whitby’s grip. His fingers were feverishly warm in the cool air of his cell, which they had all been told over and over never to call a cell, but which Whitby could never think of any other way. It was nicer than the quarters they’d all had while training for the expedition - softer sheets, a little desk and a chair and a reading light, a painting of a sailboat on calm seas hanging over the bed, even a private shower - but it locked from the outside.

“I shouldn’t have told you to take two. That was mean.” Whitby didn’t sound regretful. “But it won’t kill you.”

Summary
“The flower,” said Ghost Bird. She came closer, kneeling at his feet, and Control’s head spun so hard he had to shut his eyes again. A cool hand on his forehead, slim fingers, dry knuckles. Control heard himself let out a sound, low and thick in his throat. He tried to grit his teeth against it, but it was too late. When had she set down the water? Because her other hand was on him now, taking his wrist firmly in her grasp, her thumb pressing into his pulse point. Her touch was so confident, brusque but gentle too. Control imagined himself a rabbit shaking in her arms, and she the scientist, affixing a tracker to his leg, or the veterinarian, parting his lips with a gloved finger to drip something sweet and cool into his parched mouth.

What mysteries await in Area iX?
This story really only makes sense if you've been reading The Nut Dealer Expanded universe. It is extremely confusing if you try to read it standalone.

The Destroyer and the Desolation by Lopadopalis
Fandoms: The Southern Reach Trilogy - Jeff Vandermeer
27 Apr 2025
Tags
Summary
"… The desolation comes from the sea again, along with the strange lights and the marine life that at high tide batters itself against our wall. At night, now, their outliers try to creep in through the gaps in our wall defences. Still, we hold, but our ammunition is running out. Some of us want to abandon the lighthouse, try for either the island or inland, but the commander says she has her orders. Morale is low. Not everything that is happening to us has a rational explanation."
Among the many casualties wrought by the border on the night of its manifestation, noteworthy was a naval destroyer observed to slide into nothing. Cut off from the world in the aftermath of the shift, its survivors become the first group to grapple with the burgeoning Area X.

Summary
“I want you to…” Control said, then seemed to reconsider, his tongue dragging across his teeth inside of his mouth. She touched his bottom lip and dragged his mouth open. He startled, like a wild bird, and she laughed at him. His face flushed. Could he read her mind? She took both thumbs and pressed them to his lip, and his mouth hung open, almost expectantly.
“Spit it out,” she said without smiling.
“It’s freeing, you said.”
“Yes,” she agreed, with a slow nod.
